    "Great place to live for older retired people, boring for younger children. Only thing for children to do is go bowling. "

    "Excellent location in quiet country farming community but within 10 minutes to major hospitals, exceptional malls, shopping , restraunts, recreational areas of Ky Lake [45 minutes], Illinois recreation Horse and RV camping within few minutes. Just beautiful home with many amenities such as 10 person storm shelter, 2oK Carrier Generator...w/shop w Hydralic lift/lots of shelving would make great work shop, auto repair, cycle sales/ repair,or other business or hobby such a horse farm.
